The Bright Silvery Light By The Moon Lyrics And Chords

The guitar chords are set in the same key as Foster And Allen play the song in. The key changes half way through the song from G to A. It's up to yourself if you want to change keys. Irish country singer Paddy O'Brien also recorded the song on his album ''We'll Meet Again''.

Recorded by Foster And Allen

I was strolling down the lane
With my sweetheart by the hand,
She was asking a favour of the moon.
And though we were so young
Yet we were both as one,
'Neath the bright silvery of the moon.
 
 
So shine on silver light,
Shine on through the night
The nightingales are singing their sweet song
Well there's not a time so sweet
As when two lovers meet
Neath the bright silvery light of the moon.
 
 
I gave to her a ring
We named our wedding day
We planned on being married in the spring
Now I thank the stars above
For the night we fell in love
Neath the bright silvery light of the moon.
 
 
Shine on through the night
The nightingales are singing their sweet song
Well there's not a time so sweet
As when two lovers meet
Neath the bright silvery light of the moon
Neath the bright silvery light of the moon.
